We had plenty of space for everyone-indoor & outdoor! There were 10 of us, & we had plenty of parking for everyone. They also provided plenty of the miscellaneous items like soap, shampoo, conditioner, etc…They have everything for cooking; however, I would suggest bringing your own skillets. ##### Renee B.

Ed’s are very comfortable and the living spaces had plenty of room for all activities - puzzles, computer games or just relaxing Loved being IN Port Aransas and seeing this town from “new”eyes - close enough to walk to watch the dolphins surfing the bow waves in the shipping channel as the tankers came through. ##### Helen S.

Only notes I would make would be some bathrooms don’t have great water pressure, floors are soft in some areas and there were water roaches. Given this is a coastal home some things are to be considered possible. ##### Miranda P.

Beautiful home & perfect layout! It was great having one bedroom by the kitchen for the couple who always wakes up earliest & did most of the cooking. All the teenagers stayed upstairs, & the bedroom with its own bathroom was perfect for me & my 2 kiddos. My toddler loved the arcade game! The backyard was great to hang out with the whole family when we weren’t at the beach, which was only a few minutes away on the golf cart ##### Calvin V.

We love the big wrap-around verandah and spent most evenings outside, despite temperatures over 100 degrees. We had an internet problem when we arrived, but it was quickly fixed.

The fenced in yard was great for the little kids to play in and stay safe:). The only issues we had were that there was no working coffee maker, but Coffee Waves came to the rescue with 96 oz carafes of coffee. Also, we had to call maintenance to come fix the wifi as it was not working. Prompt attention from the management company though. ##### elissa W.

Although the house has an interesting layout, we really enjoyed both the indoor and outdoor spaces. There was room for all the people and all of our things. Overall it was very spacious for our large group. Unfortunately it was not very clean but that may have been because there were renters in right before us and they were trying to flip multiple properties and we were allowed to check in 1 hour after check in hours were supposed to occur. Several of the shower drains don't drain well and need some attention.l There was also a lot of random things left in the house, looks like someone moved out in the early 90's and left some of their things like random printers, hair rollers, etc. Also the kitchen was not well furnished with pots and pans. They were well used and we spent more time trying to get food unstuck from them than we did cooking in them. With all of that being said, we would consider staying here again but would bring needed pots & pans. ##### Cynthia P.

We had a groups of 15 from 8 to 61 and it was perfect. A few amenities like the outdoor griddle made it so easy to cook for 15 and there were a few extra beds we didn’t expect but were glad they were there and the video game was a great plus for both young and old. The location was close to everything, and in a very quiet neighborhood, the beach and the grocery are close too. Highly recommend for a big family, we loved it and plan to come back in the fall. ##### Emma M.

May 24, 2024 #### Our fellowship Bible study group trip Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We all just needed to get away. Been working long hours not been Port, A in a long time to our surprise. Wow it’s all changed. The growth is amazing not to mention our house that we stayed at just perfect for the amount of us that wanted to get away on a small trip. We definitely will come back and want to stay in the same house. Also have recommended it to my daughter which she stayed with us loved that they’re coming back and bringing their Hill Country youth ranch from Kerrville to stay there as well. ##### Rita P. ### 2/10 Terrible #### Peggy W. Aug 10, 2025 Liked: Check-in, location Disliked: Cleanliness, listing accuracy Pros: Location is great! Close to everything. Better location than Cinnamon Shores. Has a great deck and a nice grassy front lawn. Nice extras were the grill, the extra large tv, and the arcade, washer/dryer. Conns:This place is a dump. The main door with the keypad to get in had rusted hinges and fell off completely during our stay. A whole wall of outlets didn’t work in the main living room (was not tripped breaker). The towel rack was broken in one bathroom and fell off continuously. Much of the furniture was dorm room cast off and tacky. Some of the tv remotes needed batteries. The kitchen wasn’t very well stocked and didn’t have basic essentials that most rentals have such as salt and pepper. We had to go buy a can opener. Most of the coffee cups were too small for the supplied Keurig.Very little toilet tissue was supplied. The yard had dog poop throughout. One of the bedrooms had broken blinds and the last renters had attempted to repair it by duct taping a piece trash over the break. Somehow the cleaner missed this prior to our arrival. There wasn’t an accessible outlet on the outside of the house. We finally found one in the a/c unit in the back yard and had to squeeze our golf cart between the house and the fence to get it back there to charge it. There isn’t an outdoor shower, not even a water hose to spray off after being at the beach or to clean your floats before packing up. Stuff like this is standard at any beach house I’ve ever stayed. Overpriced. ##### Peggy W. Stayed 3 nights in Aug 2025 ### 2/10 Terrible #### Ashley C. Oct 7, 2022 Disliked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### This home had mice, roaches, and one of the rooms bed frame was collapsed when we got there. Again, no one expects to see a mouse, or that many roaches roaming throughout the property. In addition, one of the rooms had a broken bed frame. My mom had to sleep on the floor. There appears to be a mold like substance (2 feet tall) in the bathroom. Definitely concerning. Not to mention the flooring which is spiking up creating a dangerous surface. This is especially true for kiddos walking barefoot, or anyone really. ##### Ashley C. Stayed 2 nights in Sep 2022 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Verified traveller Jul 23, 2022 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location #### Beatiuful Home for Big Families Beautiful home for large families. Lots of space for everyone to hang out. Golf cart that is dropped off on day of arrival is a plus and makes it easy to get to the beach and around town. Here are some minor issues we had. 1\. Refrigerator and freezer are a side by side. The freezer door is by the wall and does not open all the way. Hard to get food in and out. There is another frig/freezer upstairs so you are able to put larger items up there. 2\. Bedroom description and pictures on VRBO is not exactly accurate. Here are the rooms/beds: Downstairs- Four bedrooms with Queen beds. One sofa bed in living room. Upstairs- One Twin bed in the landing area of the stairs. The bed is in shape of a boat so we called it the boat bed. One Full bed in a small room. Another room with a bunk-bed. The bottom mattress is a Full and the top is a Twin. The top bunk is close to the ceiling fan so you cannot have the fan on when someone is up there. Bring sheets and blankets for sofa bed. I hope you enjoy the house as much as we did! ##### Verified traveller Stayed 3 nights in Jul 2022 ## Expedia's Latest Trends ### Hotels > [Renaissance Austin Hotel](https://www.expedia.ca/Austin-Hotels-Renaissance-Austin-Hotel.h8075.Hotel-Information) > > [Hyatt Regency Austin](https://www.expedia.ca/Austin-Hotels-Hyatt-Regency-Austin.h21746.Hotel-Information) > > [Hyatt Regency Houston Downtown](https://www.expedia.ca/Houston-Hotels-Hyatt-Regency-Houston.h20005.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotel Van Zandt](https://www.expedia.ca/Austin-Hotels-Hotel-Van-Zandt.h10269315.Hotel-Information) > > [Hyatt Regency Houston/Galleria](https://www.expedia.ca/Houston-Hotels-Hyatt-Regency-HoustonGalleria.h10620692.Hotel-Information) > > [Marriott Marquis Houston](https://www.expedia.ca/Houston-Hotels-Marriott-Marquis-Houston.h14986044.Hotel-Information) > > [Omni Dallas Hotel](https://www.expedia.ca/Dallas-Hotels-Omni-Dallas-Hotel.h4488581.Hotel-Information) > > [Omni Barton Creek Resort & Spa Austin](https://www.expedia.ca/Austin-Hotels-Omni-Barton-Creek-Resort-Spa.h687230.Hotel-Information) > > [The Woodlands Resort, Curio Collection by Hilton](https://www.expedia.ca/Conroe-Hotels-The-Woodlands-Resort.h25794.Hotel-Information) > > [Signia by Hilton La Cantera Resort & Spa](https://www.expedia.ca/San-Antonio-Hotels-Signia-By-Hilton-La-Cantera-Resort-Spa.h284306.Hotel-Information) > > [JW Marriott Austin](https://www.expedia.ca/Austin-Hotels-JW-Marriott-Austin.h8778760.Hotel-Information) > > [Hilton Americas-Houston](https://www.expedia.ca/Houston-Hotels-Hilton-Americas-Houston.h976144.Hotel-Information) > > [Fairmont Austin](https://www.expedia.ca/Austin-Hotels-Fairmont-Austin.h18156638.Hotel-Information) > > [The LINE Austin](https://www.expedia.ca/Austin-Hotels-The-LINE-Austin.h23193716.Hotel-Information) > > [C.
